President Arthar's First Proclamation.
Il will tell you a curious story about
President Arthur. said gentleman who
had long been intimate with him In con-
versation with New York Sun reporter,
that illustrates his extraordinary eau
ton. After Garfield was shot, you
know, there was no one TO act as vice
president, as the senate had adjourned
without electing a president pro tenn.
When Garfield finally died and Arthur
was sworn in by Judge Bradley at mid
night the first thing he did was to pre-
pare a proclamation calling the senate to-
gether at once, and that same night, be-
fore he went TO bed, he signed and sealed
it and sent it by mail, addressed to him
self at Washington. That was to pro
vide for any emergency that might hap
pen. II he had been assassinated, which
would not have been strange, or had been
killed by accident on his way to Wash
ington, the clerks at the White House
would have opened the mail and would
have found in proper form document
that would have prevented confusion, for
in the event of Arthur's death there
would have been no one with authority
to summon congress. K chicago Herald.

The unprecedented sale of Boschee's
German Syrup within few years, has as.
tonished the world. Ii is without doubt the
safest and best remedy ever discovered for
the speedy and effectual cure of Coughs,
Colds and the severest Lung troubles. Ii
acts on an entirely different principle from
the usual prescriptions given by Physicians,
as it does not dry up Cough and leave the
disease still in the system, but on the con-
trary removes the cause of the trouble,
heals the parts affected and leaves them in
purely healthy condition. A bottle kept
IN the house for use when the diseases make
their appearance, will save doctors bills
and long spell of serious illness. A trial
will convince you of these facts. II is pos
stively sold by all druggists and general
dealers in the land. Price, IS cts, large

West African Dwellings.

In this primitive fashion we at length
reached the closely packed mass Of native
huts forming the real town of BOnny,
to which the handful Of European houses
around the landing place serves only as
a kind of preface. The huts were for
the most part of one traditional type, viz,
that of an enormous basket with one side
knocked out. In fact, were IA monster

hampers and lunch baskets scattered
around III the dirt, il would represent
fairly enough an ordinary African village.
A few of the larger novels had attained
the dignity Of roof of corrugated iron
stucl, on the side like a soldiers cap,
while patches of the same material Clung
to their sides like uvergrUwn postage
stamps The interiors of one and all
were fully open to the public gaze, which
mattered the less inaSmuch as there
seemed to bc nothing in them except two
or three cracked pots and u tiny fire.

as it did Of crazy wooden platform
around its four sides. with a deep hollow
in the middle, the whole thing being eX-

there was barely room upon il for our
chairs and ourselves, and when unwarily
pushed back mine in getting up to take
leave, | came within n hairs breadth OF
tumbling backward head over heals into
the yawning pit below On leaving the
house we were beginning to make merry
over this singular apartment, when an OBJ
ject suddenly confronted us which made
us all grave enough. II was strange
looking hut Uf wattles and grass hung
round with broken jars and bottles, and
standing all by itself as if the surrounding
dwellings had shrunken away from ii. Tc

The Rapidity of Progress Toward Health.
Even when good remedy for disease is Sc
lected, depends in some measure upon the
manner in which it is taken. Irregular, ill.,
terrupted doses can afford no fair test of the
eficancy of any medicine, however salutary.
Taken in proper doses at prescribed inter
walls, reliable curative will effect the
object of its use. Among remedies which,
systematically and persistently used, ac-
complish thorough and lasting cures, and
prevents the recurrence of periodic disease,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters ranks specially
high. In cases of dyspepsia debility, ,rheu-
matiSm, fever and ague, liver complaint,
inactivity of the kidneys and bladder, con
stipation and other organic maladies, it is
tried remedy, to which the medical brother
hood have lent their professional sanction.

Of goods. In silks, velvets and costly

Exquisite patterns are shown in
leaves and conventionalized flowers
arranged in stripes. Striped velyets
are also in high favor. These stripes
are not only plain, but are plaided,
barred, broken, polka-dotted and fig
ured in marvellous combinations Of
weayes and colors. When these brill

De. PIERcE's GOLDEN MEDICAL
Discovery acts powerfully upon
the Liver, and through that great
blood-purifying organ, cleanses
the system of all blood-taints and
impurities, from whatever cause
arising. 1t is equally efficacious
in acting upon the Kidneys, and
other excretory organs, cleansing,
Strengthening, and healing their
diseases. As an appetizing,
restorative tonic, it promotes
digestion and nutrition, there
by building up both flesh and
strength. In malarial districts,
this wonderful medicine has
gained great celebrity in curing
Fever and Ague, Chills and
Fever, Dumb Ague, and kindred
diseases.
